REDUCED TO SLAVERY.

And stranger than all, no one seems to
understand the nature of the alleged con-
tract which these poor people have been
forced into-for it is claimed that contract
does exist, though the parties of the second
part seem to know nothing whatever of its
existence. There is no doubt in the world
that they have been reduced to involuntary
servitude for long term of years, and less
doubt that when from continued labor and
bad treatment they have outlived their use
fitness they will be cast aside to shift for
themselves, perchance to lie down by the
wayside and starve to death.
There is no need for mincing matters, for
the Hawaiian government cannot afford to
shut its eyes to the Inauguration of this
most cruel traffic. If it would clear itself
Of the shame which is soon to be cast upon
IL, it must act quickly and intelligently.
Its duty is plain.
These people should be gathered up and
sent back from whence they came, and it
need not deplete the treasury, either, for

ton should be wrung from the pockets of

THE MISSING OF THE BRIG.

The Allie Rowe was fitted out from Homo
4 lulu for. a trip to the South Sea Islands, and
/ sailed in September, 1886. Her mission was
not stated at that time, although it was gen.
orally understood that she was going on a
1 'Iabor recruiting expedition" Her log shows
that on Oct. 80 she arrived at the New
Hebrides group, and then tersely continues
"Cruised around the islands and took on
hoard 1876 natives-105 men and 20 women. "
When we consider the character of the
man Phillips and his past experience in
similar expeditions, it is not hard to under
stand how he induced the simple
minded savages to come on board
At any rate, he put to sea with his
living freight and arrived in this
barbor with the number above given.
Whether any died on the voyage-and con-
sidering the quarters into which. they were
huddled it would be surprising if some had
MOTT is not stated What treatment the
poor, helpless throng received is not de-
scribed, for there was hardly one among
them who could understand the language of
his captors and besides, the most of them
were sent away to the purchaser the day
after they arrived. There is hardly any OPP
portunity afforded for conceament of the
/ price for which these hapless savages were
sold and the price paid for them is under
stood to have been $l05 per head.
They We're described as the most ''likely
lot" that ever landed on the beach, and
though they were not put upon the block
1 and bartered off as in the days gone by, yet
they were forced to submit to as close a
scrutiny as was won't to prevail when the
slave market was a recognized institution in
your own land
They were sent to the plantation at Hama
kuapoko and Pal, and the owners of these
tracts can not be unaware of the fact that
they have taken part in an illegal traffic.
They must know that they are acting con-
trary to public policy, to the laws of the ma
/ tons controlling the southern seas, and that
they have done all this after being notified
in writing by the immigration Commission
ers that an application to recruit labor as
proposed by the owners of the Allie Rowe
would not be granted.
